Cooking food

Notes

■ Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food which is

piled high. You should therefore distribute the food so that it

is as flat as possible in the ovenware. Different foodstuffs

should not be placed in layers on top of one another.

■ Cook the food in ovenware with a lid. If you do not have a

suitable lid for your ovenware, use a plate or special

microwave foil.

■ This will help the food retain its own distinct taste, so it will

require less seasoning.

■ After cooking, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to

5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.

■ Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing

plates from the oven.

Microwave tips

Tips for grilling

Notes

■ All the values given are guidelines and can vary depending

on the properties of your food.

■ Rinse meat in cold water and dab it dry with kitchen towel. Do

not add salt to the meat until it has been grilled.

■ Always grill on the wire rack with the cooking compartment

door closed and do not preheat.

■ Place the wire rack on the glass pan so that this catches the

meat juices.

■ Use tongs to turn the pieces of food you are grilling. If you

pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run out and it will

become dry.

■ Dark meat, e.g. beef, browns more quickly than lighter-

coloured meat such as veal or pork. When grilling light-

coloured meat or fish fillets, these often only brown slightly on

the surface, although they are cooked and juicy on the inside.

You cannot find any information about the settings for the

quantity of food you have prepared.

Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following rule of

thumb:

Double the amount = almost double the cooking time

Half the amount = half the cooking time

The food has become too dry. Next time, set a shorter cooking time or select a lower microwave

power setting. Cover the food and add more liquid.

When the time has elapsed, the food is not defrosted, hot or

cooked.

Set a longer time. Large quantities and food which is piled high

require longer times.

When the time has elapsed, the food is overheated at the

edge but not done in the middle.

Stir it during the cooking time and next time, select a lower micro-

wave power setting and a longer cooking time.

After defrosting, the poultry or meat is defrosted on the out-

side but not defrosted in the middle.

Next time, select a lower microwave power setting. If you are

defrosting a large quantity, turn it several times.
